So I just bottled my first Brett beer. I was able to buy a case of Champagne bottles for 10 bucks from a friend (but only the one case). However, I had been saving up a bunch of Cook's champagne bottles from when my GF and her friends have mimosas.
They were American bottles so in theory they should take a cap, but for the life of me I could not get those things capped. Luckily, I have enough champagne bottles that would cap, so I only had to cage two bottles (which was good cause I only had two caged wine stoppers).
Does anyone know why these Cook's bottles weren't working? I was able to get one capped, but almost broke my capper trying to get it to work on the rest.

I used normal bottle caps, nothing special.
